JamesC Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I had mine done on my 6 speed shortly after i bought it. I took mine to a local garage though, cost me £130 inc seals, oil and labour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminator Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 The in the tech FAQ's there is a copy of the seal replacement section of the manual. The seals can be done with the box in the car, so I have been told. The selecrtor shaft seal removal is ARRPITA, it seems that putting the new one in on top of the old one works well and easier to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Shane_ Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 was told that the box has to come out........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I've replied to your PM was told that the box has to come out........ The box does not need to come out to replace either the output shaft seal or the selector seal. The selector seal is near impossible to remove without taking the box out so the ones who know what they are doing simply push an additional seal onto the selector shaft. It works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I'm sure the prop coupling needs removed from the box output shaft first requiring a special tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I'm sure the prop coupling needs removed from the box output shaft first requiring a special tool.Yeah, I thought that too. Anyone done it OK without that special tool? Mine leaks a bit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 A bit of angle iron with two holes drilled to take the prop coupling bolt does the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
